Does anyone drink regular tap water now days?

I just refilled my water bottle up with my usual reverse osmosis stuff after having been drinking fountain water when i filled it up at work. That stuff tastes like metal.

High quality drinking water is free, and we've still managed to come up with a way to pay for "better water". We are TRULY a consumption driven society. LOL

So true...

I had an argument with a guy at work over bottled water. Turns out his "superior" water was tap water from some place in Texas.

paying for bottled water to drink at home is retarded unless you live in a country where the tap water gives you the shits

C'mon guys the man is using fluoride to control your minds. You have to double charcoal filter it and then boil for eight minutes.

FLUORIDE KILLED MY CHILDREN!!!!!11

I drink the stuff out of my fridge line, which means it's filtered, but I only do it because it's colder. Teh waters that come out of the faucet are totes drinkable. Tastes fine.

You think the water at the store is just run through a silk filter at the bottom of some Alpine stream, then bottled and delivered to you?

tap water is a good source of heavy metals, mercury, estrogen, lithium, petroleum by products, not currently available in daily vitamin supplements.

these are all known mutagens/genetic triggers, necessary for modern cybernetics to evolve.

i drink tap water. my city has good tap water. most bottled water is from the tap anyway (there are really specific things that need to be on the label if it isn't).

when i lived in serbia we usually bought 6L bottles of water to drink. the tap water wasn't bad for you, it just wasn't tasty like the giant cheap bottles of tasty spring water.
